I found the replacement lights at Home Depot---same fittings, and wattage, just not the same price. Lets say about 1/3 or so of the cost of the Ott replacement bulb.

To get in on the discussion of the lights---My husband and I both have one at each of our desks, really makes a big difference--will not change those---and I also have one in my sewing room. Really helps when I need to match colors, or to trim closely, can see so much better.
